What we're dealing with today is a major issue. A crisis. One small detail forgotten and our whole Universe could be blown away.

Is Project Escalatus ready to launch ?

What other choice do we have ? He is out there. If we don't act right now, it will be the end of the Universe. He has possession of the Omega 83, meaning he is the most dangerous man alive.

If we are reunited at The House Of Crossers today, it is to find a solution, to save our Universe. Launch Project Escalatus. Now.

With all 9 members currently in the room, they look closely at the door slowly opening. The doors open, in the middle is a man standing.

I'm coming in peace. My name is Aladdin, of the planet of the same title. I have come at The House Of Crossers.

How did you get here ? It is impossible, no one ever managed to do it but us, The Council members.

I can help you. I know what you're doing in here. I can help you stop him. I know Jafar, because he comes from my world.

What do you know ?

The 1st galaxy ever created, yours. Nobody knows about your existence. One day, a man heard about you, a very dangerous criminal on my Earth. He answers to the name of, Jafar. He is finding a way to make the Omega 83 work in his favor as we speak. What did he sent here ?

He said he would invade and take control of our dimensions once he figured out how to stabilize the Omega 83.

I've heard about that weapon. What is its purpose ?

The most powerful weapon in the universe, as far as we know. It can transport any human, animal, or object through dimensions, and adjust them to fit the new standards of that dimension.

What is Project Escalatus ?

It's a project, a theory. We've built a weapon, as similar as the Omega 83 as possible, some kind of replicate. If we play our cards right, we could send all of our people, from all 9 dimensions to the dimension, Mickey Mouse & Friends. Over there, everyone would be protected from Jafar.

The problem is, the probability of it working is close to nothing.

What do we do ?

A vote. Whether or not we activate Project Escalatus.

---

Everyone votes, one by one.

I call for the activation of Project Escalatus.

---

Finally, Mr. Mouse presses on the button to activate the protocol, and the cube starts glowing.

Suddenly, the cube's light increases, becoming stronger and stronger, almost blinding everyone in the room. Mr. Mouse attempts to cover the light with his hands but it just burns them, making him drop the cube to the ground. Something is turning wrong. As the cube drops and hits the ground, it explodes in dozens of pieces, making a huge explosion in the room. Everyone gets blown away by it, and fire starts spreading in the room. Wasabi rushes outside, while everyone starts suffocating, unable to move, or breathe. The wall lights also burn at the impact, and the glass table at the center of the room had also been broken apart, its shards projected all over the room.

Uhh..what is happening ?

Something went off. Project Escalatus wasn't supposed to blow up like that.

At least we're alive..

I can't breathe...

Hold on guys, I'm coming !!

Please, come quick !! He's not going to hold too long.

What are you talking about ?

---

As they all suffocate, the doors open once again and Wasabi comes back in, with a fire extinguisher. He aims, squeezes, and sweeps it side to side, to extinguish the fire. The vision becomes clearer and all members are able to see themselves again.

Mr. Mouse, hold on tight. You will be fine. I promise.

Oh my god, MR. MOUSE !!! We need to evacuate you. There are hospitals who will take you in quickly, back at your dimension.

I...I..I won't..make it.

No, Mickey, listen to me, stay with me. I need you. We need you.

---

Anger, Buzz, Wasabi, Flynn, Nala, and Felix approach Mr. Mouse where Mrs. Hopps and Madame Leota are sitting, next to him. Pierced in his chest, is a large shard of glass, that had been projected from the glass table. All over him is white blood, flowing on his clothes, and on to the floor.

Judy..don't look..look at me..like that. Just..talk...talk to me.

Please, stay with me. Please, you're going to be fine. Listen to me..you're going to be fine.

Is it bleeding a lot ?

No, no, I can barely see..

Judy ? Ple..plea..please.

Yes, yes, you're bleeding a lot. It's white. I had forgotten the blood of your people's dimension was white.

End it.

What ?

Judy, I don't think he is thinking clearly. We should get him to a hospital.

At that rate, I could keep bleeding for hours if I stay here. And there is no time to bring me to a hospital. Please..I..it hurts too much. Do it.

No, NO, NO, NO, NO !!! And then what Mr. Mouse !!? What will we do without you ?

Judy..Judy..look at me. You need to stop Jafar. For me, stop him. You are now no longer second hand of anyone, you are now..you are now..leader of The Council. Our Council.

No...please, Mickey, I am begging you. What about Project Escalatus ? What should I do ? I've only been your second hand for few months.

Do me one last favor..

---

As Mrs. Hopps gets close to Mr. Mouse, he whispers something in her ear, a secret, for only her and him to know. The other 7 members stay there quietly, until they get the signal of Mrs. Hopps. She nods to them, telling them he agrees with what has to come next. Mrs. Hopps takes the shard in her hands, holds tight to it, and starts pushing it even further in his body. Mr. Mouse stays strong, quiet, and immobilizes himself. The white blood keeps flowing, and starts rushing through his clothes even quicker. Not moving, he slowly closes his eyes, making a final nod to Mrs. Hopps, now new leader of The Council.

We, members of the 9 dimensions, swore allegiance and devotion to Our Council, and swear to guide each of our people through the values, and ideals we respect. May the gods respect our decision today, minor or major, as we promise to fulfill its duty through integrality, and leadership. Estroum. Halaba. Marveachy. Laboorisa. My responsibility.

---

Each repeat the final sentence, and all go out of The Council's room. They walk a long red hallway, separating The Council Room, to the end of The House of Crossers. There, a cube, similar to the one that exploded, slightly glowing, is sitting on a pedestal.

I'm sorry for your loss Judy.

It's Mrs. Hopps for you. And don't talk to me.

Please..I didn't know..

I don't care, if you hadn't come, maybe, just maybe he would still be alive.

How can you know that ?

I..I don't.

Let me help.

I think you've done enough..I'm..sorry. I'm sorry. I'm just devastated, and stressed, and I don't know what to do.

Calm down. I know more Jafar than anyone else. I can help you. Please. Now if you are willing to cooperate, maybe we can figure out how we're going to deal through this. If I may ask, what is this glowing cube ? The last one I saw exploded, remember.

The cube that exploded was the replication of the Omega 83, the one we made, this one is different. It's an original. A real one. Now that Project Escalatus is dead, we have nothing to do until Jafar comes to our worlds.

So what ? We can't just..just do nothing.

I have a plan.

Oh yeah, what is it genius ?

Yo, Anger, calm down. He's here to help.

Is he ? It's been 15 minutes since he's here, he is coming from god knows where, and Mr. Mouse just got killed. Now why should we trust you ?

ENOUGH !! All of you. What's your plan Aladdin ?

Okay, first of all. If Jafar stole the original and real Omega 83, than what is this one ?

Who said there was only one Omega 83 ? Look, Omega 83's are very complicated, each one is different to another. He stole one of them, one that was designated to bring us back to The Council Room whenever necessary. The replication we made though was a more powerful version of an Omega 83, designated to bring everyone in our galaxy to Mr. Mouse's dimension, well until it failed. Now, the only Omega 83's that are left, are to transport us from dimensions to dimensions, but never back here.

So once we leave this place, we can't come back.

Someone is catching up. Yeah, you got it right. This cube will transport us to any of our 9 dimensions, but The Council Room.

What's our next stop ?

The Mickey Mouse & Friends world.

Are you crazy ? Sorry Mrs. Hopps, but this is the last place where we should be at now. Mickey Mouse & Friends is the only dimension that cannot be entered in by Jafar, meaning, it is the only one safe from him. We should be more cautious about our own dimensions.

We will do as you want. Okay ? You are the new leader of The Council, thefefore, we will obey you. If you are certain of your decision, then we shall honor it.

Will we ? She's been leader for the last 5 minutes and it feels like all of our dimensions are already doomed with her decisions.

YES. We will. Anger, drop it.

I agree. Princess Rapunzel will be able to wait one more day for me if she has to. Mrs. Hopps, what is you final order ?

We are going to the world of Mickey Mouse & Friends. Everyone, put your left hand on the cube. Repeat after me. Estroum. Halaba. Marveachy. Laboorisa. My responsibility. To the dimension of Mickey Mouse & Friends.

---

Each of the 8 members put their left hand on the cube and repeat the line. In the meantime, Aladdin stays standing, with his hand on the cube, watching the tradition. As the final repetition of the line is said, the cube slowly starts glowing.

As the transportation finishes, all land in a forest. Everything is squared, the trees are of a light green color and are perfectly cut. The ground is divided by lines of light green grass, and lines of darker green grass. The only sounds they hear are small birds singing, and the wind slowly falling upon their skins. Each members look around them.

It's even more beautiful than what Mr. Mouse used to tell me.

He never brought you here ? I always thought he had.

No, we never broke the law. Entering into someone else's world is prohibited by the regulations of The Council.

Mrs. Hopps ? He betrayed us. Aladdin removed his hand off the cube before the transportation, which means he is still at The House Of Crossers. And whatever he is planning up there, it isn't good.

No, no. NO ! How could I be so DUMB !?

Whatever is up there, he can't do anything. Remember ? What else was up there anyways ?

Communication systems ? All codes to transfer a message through the Screen Routers ? He could reveal our existence and all of our positions to all of our 9 dimensions in a minute.

Dead, I checked before leaving. No way he stayed up there for that. What else is..

Oh no..it's not a what. It's a who.

Mickey.

But he's dead.

Are we sure about that ?

---

They all look at each other. They all nod and agree to believe that Mickey is dead. Deep down, Mrs. Hopps just can't stop from noticing the uncertainty between everyone's eyes, all knowing that whatever Aladdin stayed for at The House Of Crossers, he had been planning it for ages.
